Indian food prepared by an indian chef. The food is very good. And the environment, in Viva Palmas, is very nice. Somewhat pricey, but definitely worth it.

We really liked this restaurant overall. The service was very kind, and the waitress explained the dishes to us. They also brought the food out quickly. Another great thing is that they offer seven levels of spiciness; we chose level 3. If you're not too good with spicy food, it might be better to go with level 2. All the dishes were delicious, especially the freshly baked naan bread. The only thing we found was that the chicken dish had a very small portion for its price. Other than that, everything was great!
